Heheh, that's cool looking.  What I'm really looking for is a slider with a=
n editable label - eg, so I can type in "120" for an exact 120 rather than =
sliding between 115 and 123 or something (which I've found annoying).  This=
 can be helpful when syncing up echos to tempos and whatnot.  I intend to a=
dd that in to JSynthLib after I'm done with everything else (assuming there=
's not one in there yet... at least it didn't seem to work like that for my=
 linux system).

Yeah, I'm making the Single Editor first.  I want to make sure I can get th=
at working before I continue - that's the important part for me, although I=
'll probably need all the features in (banks/performances/voices/save/load)=
.  Seems like it's mostly getting a small part working, then adding the res=
t is just a matter of cutting and pasting from the sysex docs, more or less.
